#45562: drag and drop file upload fails with empty files when dragging from macOS
Preview into WP on Safari 12

Part of my workflow involves opening multiple files in Preview (on macOS),
and then adding them to WordPress by dragging and dropping them to the Add
Media page in WordPress (running in Safari). That used to work fine, but
when I upgraded to Safari 12.0, I get the error:
"File is empty. Please upload something more substantial. This error could
also be caused by uploads being disabled in your php.ini or by
post_max_size being defined as smaller than upload_max_filesize in
php.ini."
I'm using self-hosted WordPress (on both Ubuntu 11.04 or 11.10, with
Apache 2.4 as the web server); I don't think I made any server-side
configuration changes when this started happening, though it's possible I
upgraded Apache versions at about the same time? This occurs in WordPress
5.0, and also occurred in WP 4.x versions; again, I don't think it was
caused by a WP change, though I can't rule out a WP upgrade at about the
same time.
This works fine when dragging and dropping from Finder, it's only when
dragging and dropping from Preview.
To reproduce:
* Select multiple images and open them up in Preview.
* Go to Add Media in Wordpress in Safari 12.
* Drag one of the images from the Preview sidebar to Wordpress.
I get the above file upload error when I do this.
